Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19
Report an additional code alongside S02.66 to fully describe the condition. S02.66 is sequenced first.
- code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)

How long has S02.66 existed?
S02.66 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.
